I ran across this on another weather board. It's a short, fun test to determine how liberal or conservative you are....
http://www.self-gov.org/quiz.html

I tried to copy/paste the little graph showing my results, but it won't work (neither did Webscissors.com

Here is the text results for me...and what it means is I'm smack dab in the middle of "right-conservative" (duh!
--------------------------------


According to your answers, your political philosophy is right-conservative.

Your Economic Self-Government Score is 80%.

Well, here is how I did:

Your Political Philosophy

This was very intresting for me. I've never tried to label myself when it comes to political beliefs.Here's my results;

Personal self-government score~ 70%
Economic self-gov. score~ 50%

Centrists favor selective government intervention and emphasize practical solutions to current problems. They tend to keep an open mind on new issues. Many centrists feel that government serves as a check on excessive liberty.

I learned something about myself today ! ~K

Here's a shocker:

Left-Liberal

I was on the corner of Centrist with Libertarian and Right/Conservative. But they counted me as a Centrist. Is it partial/tainted?

I can't take the test because Websense blocks me.

But makes no difference...I already know the answer:

Conservative

On this test, I came out on the far border between "Libertarian" and "Right-Conservative"...just about where I thought I'd be.

Does sleep make one more conservative or liberal??

I just took the test again (wide awake this time , and I'm now 90/10...almost as "right conservative" as you can get :o :o

I'm the most conservative in my family to take it so far (Becky and Beth haven't taken it yet).

I wonder if I have to turn in my Republican to the Death card now?

Some of the issues on the site I am not sure about; even voting for "Maybe" -- but I took part in it anyway.

I for the most part of conservative views and always vote Republican, not actually knowing if I should or not. My parents don't "literally" force me to vote for certain candidates, but strongly suggest that I do on specific issues. I know we aren't getting specific on this thread, but I though I'd just mention it.

In at least the last few years I have been feeling more and more like an independent. According to my Florida Voter's Registration Card, I am a registered Republican. For the record, Massachusetts voters do not have a 'voters registration cards.'

I'm a centrist, whatever that means hehe!
